Why bother with CNAMES or A records? Is there anything wrong with simply using
NS records for each adress? i.e.:

$ORIGIN 109.246.64.in-addr.arpa.
1        NS         ns1.customerA.com.
1        NS         ns2.customerA.com.

This will work. For large blocks it would get tedious to manage, though a
few lines of perl will spit out a file in short order.

Definately not easy to manage on a large scale however.
